Remember the ol' Cam Newton/Marcell Dareus debates back in 2011?

Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus has left the team and intends to enter a rehab facility.

“After careful consideration of recent events within my life, I have made the decision to enter a rehabilitation facility,” Dareus said in a statement released by the team. “I feel this is the best decision for me, my family and my teammates as I move forward with my career. I appreciate the support of my teammates and the Bills organization through this process.”

 

Meanwhile, Cam eats fish and occasionally goes to a strip club.

I love reading those old pre draft Cam threads. The people who think they know so much about football, we're so wrong when it came to Cam. Lol one guy in there was adamant the panthers were not taking a "running QB." Thread made me laugh, but I also miss some of the good posters we had back then: King Taharqa, DaCityKatz, JTNC, blackcat. They all fought the good fight, and were some of the originals of the Cam brigade.

In regards to Dareus, I hope he gets the help he needs and is able to resume his career without relapse. He's a good player.

It's truly amazing to really see how far we have come as a franchise since the Cam draft. I just rewatched some of his Auburn highlights and man he is exactly the same fun player that people surround themselves with. Now the Panthers are all dancing, having fun and taking pictures. Its amazing what 1 player can do to a franchise.

Those were embarrassing days for the huddle. It went well beyond simply being a decision though. Some people held that grudge literally for years just waiting for him to make any kind of mistake so they could gloat about being right.

Our drafts have been yuuuuuge since 2011.  Hitting on every 1st rounder. 

Butler has a lot to live up to

We pretty much have nailed our first round talent since the Seifert era ended.

only guy flop was Otah and it wasn't a talent flop because he was practically an All Pro RT out of the gate

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
